He isn’t weak though, nor is he incompetent. One of the main themes of the entire comic, one of the things that inspired me to make a story about a game villain, is the thought of how much pre-game preparation they must go through that you don’t see, and how powerful they obviously are, only to be brought down by some kid, or guy – one or two or at most a small team of “normal people”. How ridiculously unfair and improbable and spirit-breaking that must be.

I’m going to write a blog post about some of the themes of the comic, and how it came to be, soon. I was waiting for this part to happen…

Soon. Blankity Blank needs to be up on the cast page. Also I will make a new banner as soon as I can get ahead and am not just scrambling to get the pages up on time Then Blank will not look like such a derp child and they will all be freed from that dreadfully thick lineart.

Thats cold,even to me,let him get blank in the water next time,see how well he does then,especially if the water thing is only the gimmick for that one boss room and the rest is Ice or maybe Fire themed,cus just think,blank finds random item for putting out any fire or whatever,finds out,OOPS skaerva’s boss room is a huge pool of water,or maybe just full of water,Ideneu,something cool like dat,that the dungeon item is completly useless in,Blank will die n-ICE-ly in such a situation I think…..

We’ll see. At this point I am no more sure than Skärva as to what he’s going to try next, but he’s not the type who doesn’t learn from his mistakes. The first time he tried to beat Blank, dear young fool, he was hiring out places like the Temple of Terror left and right; he thought “light all the torches” rooms were really cool…

And here is where we really get a sense of the purpose of this comic. Very well done!

This is going to sound terrible…but I really like that shot of Blank in the first panel, very dramatic. And how he practically demands for a next boss form at swordpoint in panel two. Blank seems very “bring it on!!”. Too bad he’s got to do so well at the expense of poor Skaerva.

AND I just realized, he’s making off with the Orb of the Gods! Oh my gosh, all heroes are essentially MUGGERS! They beat up bad guys and take their stuff! O_o

Indeed, Blank and his ilk are known for breaking-and-entering and snatching stuff out of all the dungeons. It’s ok in this case – for one thing the gods clearly wanted him to have it. The gods want him to have everything. (Except Veronika. Awww.) AND, who knows where Skärva got it. It’s like robbing a pawn shop… sure it’s wrong, but you’re only secondhand-stealing, probably…

I swear, your comments/replys are sometimes more funny than your comic, which is saying something as each comic makes me laugh a lot (well, with exception of this one…and maybe a few more serious/cute ones…but they’re all still just as good). “Robbing a pawn shop = secondhand stealing” being compared with spoils from a defeated game villain will have me chuckling for a week.
